Aesculap® SOCON® SRI: Spondylolisthesis Reduction Instrument
Aesculap, Inc.
Isthmic and degenerative spondylolisthesis is a common cause of lumbar symptoms
and may require surgical reconstruction. Aesculap has created the SOCON® SRI
to reduce spondylolisthesis with carefully controlled force and limited distraction.
This remarkable device achieves reduction through levered forces applied to
the L5 and S1 bodies via Aesculap's SOCON pedicle screw system.
